It's like he'll be talking normal and then mid sentence he'll get stuck in a word and it's like he can't spit the word out and then he'll get it out and finish the sentence normally. So he's not stuttering every word, just one mid sentence. It's so hard to explain in words. He's never had a stutter before, not even as a child. And no PTSD or any trauma. I think he has the normal amount of anxiety as most teenagers but nothing big is happening to cause extra stress, that I know of anyway. He's always been well spoken and this is so random and out of nowhere. Someone asked me if he would fake it, and I don't think he is because he's been trying to Google it himself and he's always just been a good kid. I'm taking him to a doctor tomorrow but I know I'm gonna feel so clueless, so I hope the doctor can witness it and go from there.
